With the year of 2018 coming to an end, it’s only time to reflect. We conducted many great interviews this year, spanning from upcoming local designers, to high profile international names. One interview that however stuck out from the rest was that of Charles C Rosario, the vice president of Lazare Kaplan Inc. Lazare has been active for over 120 years, earning itself the reputation of being trademarked as “the world’s most beautiful diamonds”. Charles specializes in cutting these diamonds, and he joined us on the show just last month, and walked us through the ins and outs of diamond cutting. Here’s a recap of our discussion. Next, Florence Song, Style Lead at Zalora, breaks down what about Terracotta shades that makes it so versatile.
